For trailering, the Trophy 2302 WA 2013 has the edge at 399 lbs dry weight versus 4 846 lbs for the Trophy 2502 Walkaround 2004.

The Trophy 2302 WA 2013 is Coast Guard rated for 7 passengers, while the Trophy 2502 Walkaround 2004 is certified for 8.

Q: Which boat has the larger fuel tank — the Trophy 2302 WA 2013 or the Trophy 2502 Walkaround 2004?

The Trophy 2502 Walkaround 2004 has the bigger tank at 163 gallons, versus 125 gallons on the Trophy 2302 WA 2013. That 38-gallon difference translates to roughly 114–190 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.

Q: Are the Trophy 2302 WA 2013 and Trophy 2502 Walkaround 2004 from the same manufacturer?

Yes — both the Trophy 2302 WA 2013 and the Trophy 2502 Walkaround 2004 are built by Trophy. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.

Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation

Trophy 2302 WA 2013 vs Trophy 2502 Walkaround 2004 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Trophy 2302 WA 2013 vs Trophy 2502 Walkaround 2004 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.

The Trophy 2302 WA 2013 carries a rated maximum of 300 hp. Engine data for the Trophy 2502 Walkaround 2004 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Trophy 2502 Walkaround 2004 carries 163 gallons versus 125 gallons in the Trophy 2302 WA 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Trophy 2502 Walkaround 2004 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Trophy 2302 WA 2013 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Trophy 2502 Walkaround 2004 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Trophy 2502 Walkaround 2004 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 0,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Trophy 2302 WA 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
